With their main claim to fame being their appearance in the Athens, GA Inside Out bio-pic of the burgeoning college town music scene, the co-ed Squalls weren't exactly wont to follow in the footsteps of state-of-the-art hometown icons REM and Pylon. If any local comparisons are to be drawn, contemporaries Love Tractor might be a safe bet. Occasionally, there's a rollicking air to Rebel Shoes, but never rebellious. Quite linear at times in fact.
Trouser Press rekid guide espouses the notion that the album is "unaffectedly artless in its polite pop-folk-rock to strongly resemble any of their musical neighbors." Now if that doesn't just whet your ever lovin' appetite, I don't know what will. Perhaps the copious vinyl static? More Squalls goodness can be experienced by clicking the hyperlink above.
Speaking of Georgia rock 'n rollers, does anyone have that oh so scarce RF and the Radar Angels album?
